The shallow water marine environment around Casey station, East Antarctica, is a high use area in the Australian Antarctic Territory, and is frequently visited by the RSV Aurora Australis and smaller vessels conducting scientific research in the area, yet bathymetry data in the area is limited. Additionally, a long-term dive program has revealed the marine habitats in the area host globally significant levels of biodiversity, but this knowledge is geographically restricted in scope (i.e. shallow depths, close to shore). This biodiversity faces pressures from human activities and climate change, yet extensive knowledge gaps remain, limiting efforts to conserve and manage it effectively.
